Alexandra Von Furstenberg, founder of the flourishing lifestyle brand which bears her name, has had the kind of upbringing most of us can only dream of. She was born in Hong Kong, is a member of fashion royalty, and can truly call herself a “Global Citizen,” having lived in some of the most sought after destinations in the world (London? Yup! Paris? Yup! Switzerland? Yup!). Here, the talented and glamorous jet-setter chatted with us about one of her favorite topics (travel!) and shared her room service must-haves, in-flight essentials, and airline favorites.

How often do you travel?

I travel every two months.

Favorite destinations to travel to?

I always adore discovering new places I have never been to.

Where’s your “happy place” to visit?

Anywhere with my fiancée.

Favorite airline?

Cathay Pacific, Air France, and Singapore Airlines.

What brand of luggage do you use?

I use a gray Delsey Helium Aero. It’s super light, the wheels work fabulously, and it comes in so many sizes.

What do you typically bring to workout in?

How do you manage your health routine when you’re away from home?

I am generally a healthy eater, but I always end a meal anywhere I am with hot water and lemon.

Favorite item from the hotel mini-bar?

Perrier.

Favorite item to order from room service?

Spaghetti Bolognese.

Have you ever had a travel disaster?

Once, when I was on a flight with a bunch of connections, my luggage failed to make it. After countless hours of paperwork and phone calls I finally got it back 5 days later. Losing luggage is the worst!

Favorite find/souvenir from your travels?

My fiancée and I went to Thailand a few years ago and we bought a big, bronze Buddha for our Zen garden here at home in Los Angeles.

Favorite childhood memory of traveling?

Gosh, that’s a hard one as I have lived all over the world—I was born in Hong Kong, and have lived in Switzerland, Paris, London, New York, and Hawaii. I have been to so many wonderful places I just don’t have one that sticks out.
